Yep! I think if #06R had repainted, it would have been done a long long time ago. Fortunately, Harrods livery stayed!

But let's just hope that #05R will keep it's YACCO livery also!

I think I would have needed some Nitro's after that.......
It's quite incredible if really they have given this car to be driven many people, not just the owner closest friends.

And there is the answer; what I was looking for. #06R and #12R both still racelivery, fantastic.

Damn, everyday I swear we don't have here at Finland any F1's!

Re: GTR's converted to road-use

I dig out the thread with a pic of #12R at Le Mans 97'

Probably not new but not sure.

The pic was taken by Lord Brett

Re: GTR's converted to road-use

Great picture Phil - looks just like it did when I saw it at Silverstone, with the man himself driving it, a year or so later

Still not a fan of longtails being converted. They look like they're floating or on stilts.

Re: GTR's converted to road-use

Can you scan it someway here?!

Anyway, it was a brilliant story. Very special. The car which run 9th in 1996, was back in Le Mans year after with road plates.
Which else car would do this thing..
